It really depends what type of Amiga you have. If it is an A600 or A1200 that has their own video output then you can simply connect the Amiga RF output to your video aerial and record the Amiga display.

If you have another Amiga you will need a modulator to connect it to the TV display. This will provide the RF output required.

If you want to do more than simply record the Amigas picture onto a video such as overlaying graphics and titles over a video display you will need to buy a genlock. These can vary in price from £50 to £500 depending on the type that you require. Unless you need a specific task that you know certain models cannot do I suggest you go for the cheaper one). The genlock will require one end to be plugged into the Amiga's RGB port with the other end fitting in the video output port (this is different from the RF connection). You will also need a second video to view and record the effects on. Good luck!
